I installed XP pro about two weeks ago. It is without a doubt the fastest, most stable OS I've ever used. It's currently running on a PII 400 with 394MB of ram, and it's faster than 2000, NT4, or 98 on this machine. It handles my burner without any external software, and I love the new media stuff.

The installation was a snap. Although I admit I did an install from scratch.(I almost never do an upgrade--just asking for trouble.) and ME was the worst POS that Microsoft (or anyone else) ever put out. I tried it once, and removed it after about 4 hours. It sucked.

I've been using XP Pro for a month on an AMD 400-megahertz with 384 Megs of memory. I love it. Extremely stable. Installation was a bit of a pain, but otherwise, it's been cool.

So far it seems that everyone who likes XP is running large amounts of RAM. Has anyone with 128 or less had any luck with XP?

You're kidding about "the fastest", right? I mean, any version of DOS is faster than any windows version ever made, including XP. And never have I seen a Windows operating system upgrade operate faster than the last. I would expect it to be more stable though.
